When you're born a prince
The whole world decides
Just what sort of man you'll be
When your father dies
And you grow that way
Under the world's eyes
And they wait for you to lead them
Just, and strong, and wise
A certain expectation
Of a man who rules a nation
An image forged in centuries of stone
To be king!
To be a man!
To be the one who holds a kingdom in his hands
To be great!
And to be fierce!
To be as indestructible as he appears
To be king
You can't dare to feel
You can't hope to dream
Not one second thought for all the things you might have been
When history is written
The textbooks will be split in-
To those who bent and those who stood like stone
To be king!
To be a man!
To be defender and protector of the clan
To be chief!
To hold the reins!
To be a ruler worthy of the blood that's flowing through his veins
To be king
But here beneath my ribs
Where they can't see
I ache for all the other lives
That I can never lead
To be a baker
Someone sweet
A dancer twirling to the beat
A father who had the time to raise his children soft and kind
A painter
Work with my hands
Musician
Play in the band
A poet
Write love songs for the one who showed me I was more
Woah!
Kirsty? Is that you?
W-W-What are you- what are you showing me?
What?
I-It was my- my father who killed you?
He wouldn't have! No!
But that means
Ursula... she's innocent?
Oh, she's done a few murders but not this one
Well, none of us are perfect
What a fool I've been!
Oh, Kirsty, thank you!
Ursula!
I'm coming!
I'm no king!
I'm but a man!
And I gave up on her, gave up on me!
The day this all began
I'll be strong!
I will face
All the pain I caused, the parts of me I lost along the way!
To be king!
Woah!
Woah!
To be king!
The whole world decides
Just what sort of man you'll be
When your father dies
And you grow that way
Under the world's eyes
And they wait for you to lead them
Just, and strong, and wise
A certain expectation
Of a man who rules a nation
An image forged in centuries of stone
To be king!
To be a man!
To be the one who holds a kingdom in his hands
To be great!
And to be fierce!
To be as indestructible as he appears
To be king
You can't dare to feel
You can't hope to dream
Not one second thought for all the things you might have been
When history is written
The textbooks will be split in-
To those who bent and those who stood like stone
To be king!
To be a man!
To be defender and protector of the clan
To be chief!
To hold the reins!
To be a ruler worthy of the blood that's flowing through his veins
To be king
But here beneath my ribs
Where they can't see
I ache for all the other lives
That I can never lead
To be a baker
